The data processing is carried out on the basis of the legal provisions and the following legal bases in accordance with Article 6 (1) of the European Data Protection Regulation:
For the protection of a legitimate interest. The interests of the data subjects worthy of protection do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest.
Our concern in terms of the DSGVO (legitimate interest) is the improvement of our offer and our web presence. Since the privacy of our users is important to us, the user data is pseudonymized. We store the data for one year for usage analysis purposes. Your IP address is immediately anonymized during this process, so that you remain anonymous to us as a user. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website will not be passed on to third parties.
You have the option of subscribing to our email updates via our website so that we can inform you regularly about campaigns and promotions. For this purpose, we process your personal data (name and email address) on the basis of Article 6 (1a) of the European Data Protection Regulation. We use the toolset of Action Network (1900 L St NW, Suite 900, Washington DC 20036) to send the emails. You can find more information about data protection here. By subscribing, you agree to receive email updates and to the data processing and privacy measures described here. This data will not be passed on to third parties.
In order to provide you with targeted information, we also collect and process information voluntarily provided about your postal code. If you also voluntarily provide us with your telephone number, you agree that we may inform you about promotions and campaigns by text message or phone call.
As soon as you have registered for the e-mail updates, we will send you a confirmation e-mail with a link to confirm your registration.
You can cancel the e-mail updates at any time. You will find a corresponding unsubscribe link in every e-mail sent. We will then immediately delete your data in connection with the e-mail dispatch.
Our offer contains links to external websites of third parties, on whose contents we have no influence. Therefore, we cannot assume any liability for these external contents. The respective provider or operator of the pages is always responsible for the content of the linked pages. The linked pages were checked for possible legal violations at the time of linking. Illegal contents were not recognizable at the time of linking. However, a permanent control of the contents of the linked pages is not reasonable without concrete evidence of a violation of the law. If we become aware of any infringements, we will remove such links immediately.
The processing of personal data that we receive in the context of an online donation is described in the data protection information for donors.
Further information on the use of this website can be found in our terms of use and in our imprint.
In principle, you have the rights to information, correction, deletion, restriction, data portability, revocation and objection. If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or your data protection rights have been violated in any other way, you can complain to the supervisory authority. In Germany, these are the respective state data protection commissioners.
